Electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) chips are similar to PROM devices, but require only electricity to be erased.

First-in, first-out (FIFO) memory chips are used in buffering applications between devices that operate at different speeds, or in applications where data must be stored temporarily for further processing.

Static random access memory (SRAM) chips do not need to be refreshed like DRAM chips. This makes SRAM chips faster and more reliable.

IC modems enable computers to transmit data over telephone lines or via wireless signals.

Bus analyzers and bus exercisers are used to monitor and check the performance of a system bus.

Video cameras take continuous pictures and generate signals for display or recording. They capture images by breaking them down into a series of lines. This search form does not include consumer devices such as camcorders.

Fiber optic switches route an optical signal without electro-optical and opto-electrical conversions.

Video format converters are used to convert video signals from one standard to another. These standards include PAL, NTSC, SECAM, CCIR, RS-170 and RS-330.

Fiber optic transmitters are devices that include an LED or laser source, and signal conditioning electronics, to inject a signal into fiber.

Charge coupled device (CCD) cameras contain light-sensitive silicon chips that detect electrons excited by incoming light. They also contain micro circuitry that transfers a detected signal along a row of discrete picture elements or pixels, scanning the image very rapidly. CCD cameras use two-dimensional CCD arrays with many thousand of pixels.

High speed cameras are designed for rapid image acquisition for scientific or industrial analysis of rapidly changing or moving processes.

Telemetry receivers and telemetry transmitters are data acquisition components used to gather information from remote locations via wireless communication.

RF transceivers are electronic devices that receive and demodulate an RF signal, then modulate and transmit a new signal.

Low light cameras are designed for low light applications. They contain sensors that are highly sensitive to light and reduce images to a series of lines.

Vision sensors are machine vision video cameras with integrated signal processing and imaging electronics. They typically include program and data interfaces.
